A little more perspective
The default is an editorial setting, not a research measurement. It describes the visible distance from the soles to the top of the head in this illustration. The figure does not depict a real child, and no name or personal information is required.
Changing the height scales the whole illustration. It does not predict how a child’s proportions change with age or growth. Shared links and source notes retain your chosen value so another viewer can reconstruct the same comparison.
Quick facts
A fictional child reference starts at a chosen height of 1.2 meters. It is configurable and does not represent a particular age, a real child, or an average population height.
For a presentation or a research note, include the subject, the measurement definition, and the assumed measurement. A picture alone cannot explain those choices. The comparison guide explains how to export an image and its source notes together.
Sources and measurement notes
The default human height is a configurable reference chosen for the tool. It is not a sourced population average.
Treat 1.2 meters as an adjustable example, not a typical height for an age.
